Tonight at Six. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:05 | |
The government has guaranteed that
Parliament will be given a vote | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
on the final Brexit deal. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
In what's being seen
as a concession, MPs will be given | 0:00:10 | 0:00:13 | |
a chance to debate the bill. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:18 | |
There will be new legislation for
MPs to debate. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:23 | |
We'll have legislation that
puts it into effect, | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
in other words the House will be
able to go through it line by line | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
and agree it line by line. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
These questions have been
pressing for months. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:31 | |
This last-minute attempt
to climb down brings them | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
into very sharp focus. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
If MPs vote against the deal
the Government says we'll | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
still leave the EU,
but without an agreement. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
Also tonight. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |

If only that were true,
every year we throw away | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
10 million tonnes of food. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:14 | |
Coming up in Sportsday on BBC News. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |

Good evening and welcome
to the BBC News at Six. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
Ever since the Brexit vote MPs
on all sides of the Commons have | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
been demanding a greater say
in how it's achieved. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:54 | |
Today the Government appears to have
offered a major concession. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
The Brexit Secretary David Davis
says a vote on the final | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
deal will be guaranteed
by a new piece of legislation. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
Labour has called it "a climb-down". | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
But the offer came with a warning. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
If MPs do vote against the deal,
whatever it is, Britain | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
will still leave the EU,
but without an agreement. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
Our political editor
Laura Kuenssberg is in | 0:02:14 | 0:02:15 | |
Westminster this evening. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:21 | |
A mess in the making. Tory rebels
and Labour were on course to beat | 0:02:21 | 0:02:28 | |
the government. But avoid defeat,
MPs will have more of a say. A vote | 0:02:28 | 0:02:35 | |
on the actual Brexit deal, as we are
about to leave. I can now confirm | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
that once we've reached an agreement
will bring forward a specific piece | 0:02:39 | 0:02:43 | |
of legislation to implement that
agreement. Parliament will be given | 0:02:43 | 0:02:48 | |
time to debate, scrutinised and vote
on the final agreement we strike | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
with the European Union. This
agreement will only hold if | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
Parliament approves that. Giving in
to some Tory and Labour demands that | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
Parliament to have a proper
decision, if and when a deal is | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
done. It's a recognition by the
government that it is about to lose | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
a series of votes on the withdrawal
bill. These questions have been | 0:03:07 | 0:03:13 | |
pressing for months, this
last-minute attempt to climb down | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
rings them into very sharp focus and
we are entitled to clear and souls. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:25 | |
Stop Brexit! In other words what
took you so long to admit that | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
Parliament would need a make or
break Brexit moment? Stop Brexit! | 0:03:28 | 0:03:36 | |
There has been fierce resistance all
along to the laws already going | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
through the Commons. This new idea
takes the wind out of the rebels' | 0:03:40 | 0:03:45 | |
sales. But if there is no deal in no
time will there be no vote? If we | 0:03:45 | 0:03:51 | |
run out of time, the time has to be
extended under Article 50 so that | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
all parties are able to deal with
it. Can he confirmed that in the | 0:03:55 | 0:04:02 | |
event of no agreement, no deal, this
place will have no say and we will | 0:04:02 | 0:04:08 | |
leave on that date because it's on
the face of the bill, without any | 0:04:08 | 0:04:15 | |
say from this supposedly sovereign
Parliament which voted to take back | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
control? While Parliamentary
involvement is essential, this isn't | 0:04:18 | 0:04:23 | |
and never should have been construed
an opportunity to reverse Brexit, to | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
return the UK to the EU, or go
behind the wishes of the British | 0:04:27 | 0:04:31 | |
people as expressed in the
referendum. It matters not so much | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
here but in the real world. European
business bigwigs in number ten | 0:04:35 | 0:04:40 | |
today, to make it plain to the Prime
Minister. Jobs, millions of families | 0:04:40 | 0:04:46 | |
livelihoods, depend on her getting
Brexit right. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:51 | |
Laura, just to be clear, vote or no
vote, Britain will still leave the | 0:04:51 | 0:04:58 | |
EU, is that right? This concession
to try to buy off Tory rebels is not | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
about that most fundamental of
questions, whether we actually go | 0:05:02 | 0:05:07 | |
ahead and leave the EU, or whether
there is an attempt by the back door | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
to make us stay in. That's not what
this climb-down is really about. But | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
this is about or not the shape of
the Brexit deal, that will change | 0:05:15 | 0:05:21 | |
our country for decades to come, is
subject to a separate act of | 0:05:21 | 0:05:25 | |
Parliament. A separate set of new
laws that MPs and Lords will have to | 0:05:25 | 0:05:30 | |
vote on, separate pieces of
legislation that actually line by | 0:05:30 | 0:05:35 | |
line our elected representatives
will have the chance to say yes or | 0:05:35 | 0:05:38 | |
no to the deal. On that fundamental
basic question, this doesn't change | 0:05:38 | 0:05:42 | |
whether or not we're going to leave
the European Union. But what it is | 0:05:42 | 0:05:46 | |
about is about trying to placate
rebels in the Tory party and Labour | 0:05:46 | 0:05:50 | |
and other parties and opponents who
have said time and again that the | 0:05:50 | 0:05:57 | |
government hasn't given people
enough of a chance to have their | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
say. They haven't wanted Parliament
to have a real role in scrutinising | 0:05:59 | 0:06:04 | |
the deal as and when it eventually
comes. There are big unanswered | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
question is here. Will it be enough
to calm down MPs who have been | 0:06:08 | 0:06:12 | |
really grumpy about how the
government is proceeding? I think | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
that is an open question tonight.
What happens if there isn't actually | 0:06:15 | 0:06:20 | |
a deal with the other 27? If there
isn't a deal then there can't be an | 0:06:20 | 0:06:25 | |
act of Parliament on the deal said
the other alternative and therefore | 0:06:25 | 0:06:31 | |
we crash out after all. But the
government hopes is this has taken | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
some of the steam out of those who
were bruising for a fight in | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
Parliament this week. It has
certainly turned down the tone of | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
some of the opposition. The
government is kidding themselves | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
that they think the fight is over
how we leave have disappeared. Thank | 0:06:45 | 0:06:49 | |
you. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:50 | |
More than 400 people have been
killed in a powerful earthquake that | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
struck the northern border
of Iran and Iraq. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
Another 4,000 were injured
and the casualty figure is expected | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
to rise on both sides of the border. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
A major rescue operation is under
way but it is being hampered | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
by landslides and power cuts. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
The epicentre of the quake,
which measured 7.3, was just under | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
20 miles south of Halabja. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:13 | |
One of the worst hit
areas was Sarpol-e Zahab, | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
as James Robbins reports. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:22 | |
The moment the Earth
starts shaking violently. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
A man runs for his life
from the control room of this | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
dam, as massive boulders
are hurled around outside. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
The dam wall was not breached
but elsewhere devastation. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
In Iran, the border town
of Sarpol-e Zahab was hit hardest. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
As entire walls collapsed,
many families did manage | 0:07:39 | 0:07:44 | |
to flee their homes,
but others were crushed or buried. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
At a local hospital, there were many
stories of narrow escape. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
TRANSLATION: I fell
from the balcony down. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:53 | |
The earthquake was very strong. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
TRANSLATION: The earthquake
shattered the window which fell | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
on me and it wounded my hand
and my face. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:03 | |
Rescue has been made more difficult
by the mountainous terrain. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
Iranian authorities are pouring
resources in but landslides | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
and power cuts are slowing both
rescue efforts and the task | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
of establishing the full
extent of casualties. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:19 | |
This quake was 7.3 in magnitude,
and happened in a known danger zone. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:26 | |
The surface of the Earth is made up
of tectonic plates, and in this case | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
the Arabian plate has been moving
roughly northwards | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
against the Eurasian plate
at a rate of two centimetres, | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
just under an inch a year. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:38 | |
Forces build up and eventually
are very suddenly released | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
with devastating effect. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
The destruction in Iran is greater
than in neighbouring Iraq, | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
where a major rescue operation
is also underway. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
The BBC's correspondent is there. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:53 | |
This area is one of the hardest hit
in Iraq by Sunday's earthquake. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
We are told seven people were inside
this home when it collapsed. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
Two of them were killed
and others were injured. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:06 | |
Several other buildings suffered
similar damage to this one, | 0:09:06 | 0:09:10 | |
but fortunately they seem to be
the exception rather than the rule, | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
and most of the other homes
in the region managed to withstand | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
the impact of the earthquake. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:17 | |
For the survivors,
night-time is the toughest. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
In rapidly falling temperatures,
families are huddled around fires. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:24 | |
Even where buildings are intact,
fear of after-shocks will keep | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
people outdoors. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
James Robbins, BBC News. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:37 | |
The Foreign Secretary,
Boris Johnson, has admitted | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
for the first time that he made
a mistake in his handling | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
of the case of Nazanin
Zaghari-Ratcliffe, the British | 0:09:41 | 0:09:43 | |
citizen who is being
held in prison in Iran. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
Following renewed criticism
from Labour, he also confirmed | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
that he would be meeting
Ms Zaghari-Ratcliffe's husband | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
in London this week. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:55 | |
Our special correspondent, Lucy
Manning, has been speaking to him. | 0:09:55 | 0:10:01 | |
SINGS. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
A mother singing with her daughter,
just a week before her arrest | 0:10:04 | 0:10:10 | |
Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has now
been separated from three-year-old | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
Gabriella for a year and a half.
With her health deteriorating in and | 0:10:13 | 0:10:18 | |
Iranians prison and the words of
politicians here appearing to harm | 0:10:18 | 0:10:22 | |
her case, her husband has this
message to the Foreign Secretary. I | 0:10:22 | 0:10:26 | |
want you to solve this mess. It's
not a mess that entirely the Foreign | 0:10:26 | 0:10:32 | |
Secretary's making but it is a mess
that his name has been touched it | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
and is getting deeper and more
complicated because of that. He will | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
take his requests to a meeting with
the Foreign Secretary this week. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:43 | |
When you go to Iran at like to be on
that plane, I'd like to be standing | 0:10:43 | 0:10:46 | |
next to you for the symbolism that
has. The second thing is that | 0:10:46 | 0:10:53 | |
Nazanin is given diplomatic
protection. Mr Johnson and Michael | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
Gove less than clear in backing the
family 's account that Mrs | 0:10:56 | 0:11:00 | |
Zaghari-Ratcliffe was visiting
relatives when she was arrested. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:05 | |
When you look at what Nazanin
Zaghari-Ratcliffe was doing, she was | 0:11:05 | 0:11:09 | |
simply teaching people journalism,
as I understand it. What was she | 0:11:09 | 0:11:13 | |
doing when she went to Iran? I do
know. The Foreign Secretary said her | 0:11:13 | 0:11:18 | |
imprisonment cast a shadow over UK
Iranians relations but he recognised | 0:11:18 | 0:11:22 | |
the family's distress. The words I
used were open to being | 0:11:22 | 0:11:29 | |
misinterpreted and I apologise. I
apologise to Mrs Zaghari-Ratcliffe | 0:11:29 | 0:11:33 | |
and her family if I've inadvertently
cause them any further anguish. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:37 | |
Labour said he needed to admit it
got it wrong. It's not good enough. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:42 | |
If it is a matter of pride that the
Foreign Secretary is refusing to | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
admit that he's made a mistake, I
feel bound to say to him that his | 0:11:45 | 0:11:51 | |
pride matters not one ounce compared
to Nazanin's freedom. Ministers are | 0:11:51 | 0:11:58 | |
considering if diplomatic protection
can be given to Mrs | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
Zaghari-Ratcliffe which would turn
it from a consumer issue into a more | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
serious dispute. It's not clear if
this would help her. Mrs | 0:12:05 | 0:12:10 | |
Zaghari-Ratcliffe's employers were
insistent her job was | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
administrative. We don't work in a
run and we have no relations with | 0:12:13 | 0:12:20 | |
Iran. On top of that she was really
on holiday. She's not spy material | 0:12:20 | 0:12:25 | |
at. Young Gabriella cried when her
visit to her mum in weekend was cut | 0:12:25 | 0:12:35 | |
short. -- visit to Hamon imprisoned
this weekend was cut short. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:45 | |
A man has been found guilty
of carrying out an acid attack | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
in a packed London club which left
16 people seriously injured. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
This is the moment
when Arthur Collins, | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
the ex-boyfriend of reality TV star
Ferne McCann, threw the substance | 0:12:52 | 0:12:55 | |
at the Mangle nightclub
in East London in April. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
The 25-year-old was convicted
at Wood Green Crown Court | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
of 14 charges, including
grievous bodily harm. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:01 | |
The chair of Parliament's spending
watching has called for a police | 0:13:01 | 0:13:04 | |
investigation after BBC Panorama
uncovered evidence of fraud | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
in the student loan system. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:10 | |
Panorama has uncovered scams
that could be costing | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
the taxpayer millions of pounds. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:13 | |
Richard Watson reports. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:20 | |
Imran Shaikh is an education agent
who we were told was up to his neck | 0:13:20 | 0:13:24 | |
in fraud. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:25 | |
He offered to get Panorama's
undercover students | 0:13:25 | 0:13:29 | |
thousands of pounds of student loan
money we were not entitled to. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:35 | |
The fee for faking attendance and
supplying assignments, £1500 paid | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
out of our student loan money every
year we are on the course. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
From the evidence you have
shown me, there is | 0:13:53 | 0:13:55 | |
clear fraud going on and it needs
to be referred to the police. | 0:13:55 | 0:14:02 | |
He arranged for us to get
on an HND diploma course | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
at Grafton College in central
London. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
But our cover story was that our
student left school at | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
16 and did not have the
right qualifications. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
Another agent called Raza,
who works for him, had an idea. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
A fraudulent certificate
was made out in our | 0:14:26 | 0:14:27 | |
undercover student's name. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
It was apparently supplied by
an awarding body based on the floor | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
above Grafton College. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:38 | |
For the National Union
of Students, crooked | 0:14:38 | 0:14:39 | |
agents are damaging UK education. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:42 | |
I am totally and
utterly disappointed | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
and disgusted that these people,
these fraudsters, are actually | 0:14:44 | 0:14:49 | |
exploiting students at the detriment
of them wanting a degree to be able | 0:14:49 | 0:14:52 | |
to progress in society. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
The government needs to do more
in regulating these types of | 0:14:54 | 0:14:56 | |
institutions. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
Grafton College and the awarding
body both say they are | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
unaware of any

"I knew I was going to die" -
the miraculous story of one surfer | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
who is returning to the water,
having survived two | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
days stranded at sea. | 0:15:57 | 0:16:02 | |
Global carbon dioxide emissions
are projected to rise | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
for the first time in four years. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:11 | |
Scientists at a United Nations
climate conference in Germany say | 0:16:11 | 0:16:15 | |
the main cause of the expected
growth has been greater use of coal | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
in China as its economy expands. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
Researchers say cuts are needed
to avoid dangerous global | 0:16:20 | 0:16:23 | |
warming later this century,
as our science editor, | 0:16:23 | 0:16:24 | |
David Shukman, explains. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:30 | |
For more than a week now the people
of Delhi had been suffering in air | 0:16:30 | 0:16:35 | |
that has become toxic, smog created
by countless engines burning fossil | 0:16:35 | 0:16:41 | |
fuels including coal. Coal is one of
the biggest sources of pollution | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
worldwide. Power stations like this
one in Poland belch out gases | 0:16:45 | 0:16:51 | |
including carbon dioxide and despite
promises to clean up, emissions are | 0:16:51 | 0:16:57 | |
actually increasing. For countries
in the path of devastating Harry | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
Kane is like the ones that struck
the Caribbean earlier this year, | 0:17:00 | 0:17:04 | |
this is depressing -- devastating
hurricane aims. It seems that little | 0:17:04 | 0:17:09 | |
is being done to stop global
warming. This is very worrying for | 0:17:09 | 0:17:14 | |
us, I would hate to say that it
sounds a death but it translate into | 0:17:14 | 0:17:18 | |
that given we have had such an
active hurricane season this season. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:24 | |
This new research finds that more
and more, Burke said is being | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
released from power stations,
factories and different forms of | 0:17:28 | 0:17:32 | |
transport -- more and more carbon
dioxide. This shows how emissions of | 0:17:32 | 0:17:38 | |
carbon dioxide have risen over three
decades. In the last few years they | 0:17:38 | 0:17:42 | |
have been levelling off which was
seen as a positive sign but this | 0:17:42 | 0:17:47 | |
year there has suddenly been an
increase of 2% so what is happening | 0:17:47 | 0:17:51 | |
and who is to blame around the
world? In America, emissions of | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
carbon dioxide have fallen slightly
and that is despite President Trump | 0:17:55 | 0:17:59 | |
wanting to leave the Paris
agreement. In Europe they are on | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
course to be down as well but in
China they are up as the economy | 0:18:02 | 0:18:07 | |
picks up and more coal is burned.
Climate scientists say it is vital | 0:18:07 | 0:18:12 | |
that less coal is used if we are to
have any chance of heading off the | 0:18:12 | 0:18:16 | |
worst of global warming will stop
President Trump is promoting the | 0:18:16 | 0:18:20 | |
coal industry and he wants America
to help other countries to use it. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:25 | |
There are countries that have said
that coal is going to be part of our | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
energy mix for the foreseeable
future, many in Asia and some in | 0:18:28 | 0:18:32 | |
Africa as well, and they have been
clear that because coal is going to | 0:18:32 | 0:18:36 | |
be part of their energy mix in the
future, they want support for clean | 0:18:36 | 0:18:41 | |
coal technology. There is now a
battle over a few will that many | 0:18:41 | 0:18:45 | |
economies rely on. There are plans
to make coal cleaner, to use it | 0:18:45 | 0:18:51 | |
without releasing carbon dioxide,
but this is not much of a reality so | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
far and in the meantime there are
warnings that emissions need to fall | 0:18:54 | 0:18:59 | |
rapidly, not rise, as they are now. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:03 | |
MPs in Westminster have
been debating a budget | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
for Northern Ireland,
after ten months without a devolved | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
executive at Stormont. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:09 | |
The power sharing government
collapsed in January, | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
and since then the DUP and Sinn Fein
have failed to agree a deal | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
to restore devolution. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:16 | |
Our Ireland correspondent Chris
Buckler is at Stormont tonight. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:25 | |
After all this time, presumably
Northern Ireland need a budget and | 0:19:25 | 0:19:29 | |
quickly? Absolutely, public services
here are starting to run out of cash | 0:19:29 | 0:19:33 | |
and that includes departments like
health and education so without a | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
power-sharing executive here,
Westminster has had no choice but to | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
step in and legislate for a budget.
Theresa May has been clear that she | 0:19:40 | 0:19:45 | |
believes this is a one-off decision
and not the introduction of what is | 0:19:45 | 0:19:49 | |
known as direct rule is where London
would take over the running of the | 0:19:49 | 0:19:53 | |
apartments here in Belfast and she
believed the DUP and Sinn Fein can | 0:19:53 | 0:20:02 | |
come to an agreement that would see
them return to government in the | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
building behind me but frankly that
is not looking likely. The DUP have | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
said they believed direct rule could
return sometime in a matter of weeks | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
and Sinn Fein are insisting that the
current talks to overcome the | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
difficulties are now over and they
want the British and Irish | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
governments to come to some kind of
partnership agreement to fill the | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
void. In the meantime, Northern
Ireland is stuck in a kind of limbo, | 0:20:20 | 0:20:24 | |
halfway between devolution and
direct rule. The one thing the two | 0:20:24 | 0:20:28 | |
parties agree on is that
power-sharing is not likely to | 0:20:28 | 0:20:32 | |
return any time soon. Thank you. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:36 | |
Bob Geldof has returned his freedom
of the city of Dublin in protest | 0:20:36 | 0:20:40 | |
against the Burmese leader Aung San
Suu Kyi who was given the same | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
honour. He described the treatment
of the Rohingya Muslim minority | 0:20:44 | 0:20:49 | |
community as mass ethnic cleansing
and he said his home city had | 0:20:49 | 0:20:55 | |
honoured Aung San Suu Kyi but now
she had shamed Dublin. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
The Church of England
is telling its schools that | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
children should be free
to explore their identity and that | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
both boys and girls should be
free to wear a tutu, | 0:21:03 | 0:21:07 | |
tiara or tool belt without judgment. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:11 | |
The updated guidelines aim
to prevent children being bullied | 0:21:11 | 0:21:15 | |
because of their sexual orientation
or gender identity. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
Here's our religious affairs
correspondent Martin Bashir. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:23 | |
Dressing up is not just a favourite
activity for the reception class | 0:21:23 | 0:21:27 | |
at this London church primary
school, it's also part | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
of the curriculum designed
to encourage individuality | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
and discourage bullying. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:39 | |
The Church of England has
updated its advice for its 4700 | 0:21:39 | 0:21:44 | |
schools to protect children who may
be considering transition | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
from one gender to another. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:50 | |
Being an individual is very
important and respecting everybody's | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
right to be an individual is very
important to us. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:56 | |
So if children aren't themselves
then they cannot be free | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
to learn, and that's key. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:03 | |
The new guidelines say children
should be allowed to try many cloaks | 0:22:03 | 0:22:07 | |
of identity without being labelled
and that a child may choose | 0:22:07 | 0:22:10 | |
the tutu, princess's tiara,
or a fireman's helmet | 0:22:10 | 0:22:13 | |
without expectation or comment. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:18 | |
Today's guidance is designed
to prevent bullying in schools | 0:22:18 | 0:22:23 | |
like this, but on the issue of human
sexuality, there is deep division | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
within the Church of England
and some evangelical Christians see | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
today's announcement as an attempt
to erode the authority | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
of the Bible and embrace
an ever-changing culture. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:38 | |
What people expect the Church
of England to do is to set forth | 0:22:38 | 0:22:43 | |
the framework for living as set out
in the Bible. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
That way all made wonderfully
in the image of God, | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
male and female, and the Church
of England today seems | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
to have failed in its duty
to say that to the nation. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:56 | |
But the Archbishop of Canterbury,
who expressed his support | 0:22:56 | 0:23:00 | |
for the new guidance in writing
and on social media, | 0:23:00 | 0:23:03 | |
rejects this criticism,
saying no child should be diminished | 0:23:03 | 0:23:08 | |
by being reduced to
a stereotype or a problem. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:11 | |
Martin Bashir, BBC
News, central London. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
This may not be what you want to see
as you sit down to a meal. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:25 | |
But we throw away around 10 million
tonnes of food each year, | 0:23:25 | 0:23:28 | |
and according to experts much
of it is good enough to eat. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
There is waste throughout
the food supply chain, | 0:23:31 | 0:23:33 | |
but it's thought that the biggest
problem lies with consumers | 0:23:33 | 0:23:35 | |
and campaigners are urging us
to be much more careful | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
about what we throw away,
as Jeremy Cooke explains. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
OK, it is past its sell by date. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
But this is, or was, food. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
What's this? | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
Sushi. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
Grown, produced,
processed, and discarded. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:55 | |
A super-sized serving
of stinking waste. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:59 | |
It's amazing how much food is thrown
out and it's amazing how long it's | 0:23:59 | 0:24:03 | |
taken the message to get through. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:04 | |
If you don't have to
eat it, don't buy it. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:09 | |
The striking thing here
is the tonnes of food waste | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
that we all throw away all the time. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:15 | |
This stuff has come from bars
and restaurants and businesses | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
and there are mountains of it piling
up here every day. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
Across the country,
we throw away 10 million | 0:24:21 | 0:24:23 | |
tonnes of food every year. | 0:24:23 | 0:24:26 | |
That's £17 billion worth in the bin. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
And we're told 60%
of that is avoidable - | 0:24:29 | 0:24:32 | |
food that could have and should
have been eaten. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:38 | |
There is waste through
the entire supply chain. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
From in the field,
in the manufacturing, | 0:24:41 | 0:24:45 | |
in the restaurant, in the retail,
in the supermarket, distribution, | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
and in the kitchen at home. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:50 | |
Overproduction is a fact
of the modern food industry. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:54 | |
Most of the surplus - good,
nutritious stuff - goes to waste. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:56 | |
But here there's another way. | 0:24:56 | 0:25:00 | |
All this, if it wasn't
for Fareshare, would end | 0:25:00 | 0:25:04 | |
up going in the bin. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:05 | |
At the Fareshare charity,
they take the surplus and use | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
it to feed the hungry. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:10 | |
The thing that really drives us nuts
is it is going to waste | 0:25:10 | 0:25:14 | |
while there are people going hungry. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:16 | |
We feed at the moment half
a million people a week, | 0:25:16 | 0:25:18 | |
half a million people a week,
with this food. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:22 | |
We do that to 7000 front line
charity and community groups. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:26 | |
Which is good news here
at the Melton Learning Hub, | 0:25:26 | 0:25:30 | |
where disadvantaged kids get
good, fresh food. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:35 | |
For our kids it means
they get hot meal. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:37 | |
They definitely get
a hot meal every day. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:40 | |
Lots of different circumstances
the young people come to us | 0:25:40 | 0:25:43 | |
in and it is a brilliant way
of using food that would, | 0:25:43 | 0:25:46 | |
as you say, go to waste. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:47 | |
But Luke and his mates know
that this is the exception. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
Most surplus food is
simply thrown away. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:54 | |
This stuff, if it was like left
on the shelf, it would get put | 0:25:54 | 0:25:58 | |
into storage and get put
in landfills and that | 0:25:58 | 0:26:00 | |
and that's not good. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:01 | |
Tackling the issue will mean dumping
less food and doing more | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
with whatever goes in the bin. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:07 | |
Here it is used to make valuable
fertiliser to generate | 0:26:07 | 0:26:10 | |
gas and electricity. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:13 | |
But most of our discarded food
still goes to the incinerator | 0:26:13 | 0:26:16 | |
or to landfill - perhaps
the definition of waste | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
in a hungry world. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:19 | |
Jeremy Cooke, BBC News. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:22 | |
We'll have more on waste
tomorrow, looking at | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
the ways we can reduce it. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
Time for a look at the weather. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
Here's Phil Avery. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:37 | |
A beautiful picture but I guess it
means it is pretty nippy. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:40 | |
It was this morning, the milder air
from the Atlantic brought this in | 0:26:43 | 0:26:48 | |
parts of Scotland and at the same
time further south the cold air gave | 0:26:48 | 0:26:52 | |
a glorious start. But there is
something of a transition already in | 0:26:52 | 0:26:57 | |
hand as the mild air that was always
around has pushed to the north of | 0:26:57 | 0:27:02 | |
Britain ranked stoop weather fronts
that have changed the wind | 0:27:02 | 0:27:05 | |
direction. Sunday was all about the
northerly, but no longer the -5 of | 0:27:05 | 0:27:14 | |
last night, plus five or more for
many parts about from maybe Scotland | 0:27:14 | 0:27:19 | |
which has the best of the sunshine
to start the day. Some rain in the | 0:27:19 | 0:27:27 | |
Western Isles, but the south and
Central Belt, we picked up the cloud | 0:27:27 | 0:27:31 | |
and it thickens up in the North of
England, East Anglia and across the | 0:27:31 | 0:27:35 | |
Midlands and Wales. Only in the
southern counties might see a bit of | 0:27:35 | 0:27:40 | |
brightness to start the day. The
theory is that we will drag that | 0:27:40 | 0:27:45 | |
cloud further south, all the while
with the breeze from the west, it | 0:27:45 | 0:27:50 | |
might break up coming over the hills
of Wales and the Pennines but no | 0:27:50 | 0:27:55 | |
doubt the best sunshine is in
Scotland. Relatively mild compared | 0:27:55 | 0:27:59 | |
to today. But it comes at a price,
fog on Wednesday morning could be | 0:27:59 | 0:28:08 | |
dense in patches in the South of
England and Wales. The best of the | 0:28:08 | 0:28:13 | |
sunshine further north. As the day
gets going, some of the cloud and | 0:28:13 | 0:28:18 | |
fog will lift, some brightness in
parts of England and Wales and in | 0:28:18 | 0:28:22 | |
Scotland you have that weather front
coming back at you in the West but | 0:28:22 | 0:28:27 | |
Italy but it is relatively mild --
particularly. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:30 | |
That's all from the BBC News at Six
so it's goodbye from me | 0:28:32 | 0:28:35 | |
and on BBC One we now join the BBC's
news teams where you are. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:36 |
